In March 2024, EA (the Electronic Arts Inc. American video game development company) released a string of retro titles on the official Steam platform.

Let’s dive straight in to discover some of EA’s most iconic video games that recently arrived on Steam, which you can enjoy playing today across multiple devices and platforms (consoles, PCs, and mobile gaming platforms).

What retro/classic games from EA can I find on Steam today?

At the time of writing, several unforgettable strategy games from EA are available on the Steam gaming platform. The first games you may want to check out before any others are all from the Command & Conquer: The Ultimate Collection series. Examples include:

  1. Command & Conquer Renegade
  2. Command & Conquer Generals
  3. Command & Conquer Generals Zero Hour
  4. Command and Conquer 3 Kane’s Wrath
  5. Command & Conquer Red Alert, Counterstrike and The Aftermath
  6. Command & Conquer Red Alert 2 and Yuri’s Revenge
  7. Command and Conquer Red Alert 3
  8. Command and Conquer Red Alert 3 Uprising
  9. Command and Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars
  10. Command & Conquer 4 Tiberian Twilight
  11. Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun and Firestorm
  12. Command & Conquer and The Covert Operations

In titles such as The Saboteur, players are dropped deep behind enemy lines into the French Capital, which is heavily occupied by invading Nazis. Your character is fuelled by vengeance, and amidst the flames of rebellion, you will be on a mission of sabotage to stop the Nazis.

If you fancy a change after playing any of these games, then you may also like to try any of the hit titles from the hugely successful Populous series, which includes the following games:

  • Populous (the first instalment)
  • Populous: The Beginning
  • Populous 2: Trials of the Olympian Gods

Instead of having to try to defeat Nazis in heavily occupied Paris, in these games, you will be transported back thousands of years to an ancient civilization. This’ god game,’ as it was called, was first released in 1989 and was hailed as revolutionary at the time.

If you want to play any of these games from your preferred device right now, head over to the official Steam website.

Alternatively, if you want to play retro-inspired online slots, such as Robocop: Cash Collect, The Goonies Return, Creature from the Black Lagoon, King Kong Cash Pots, Jumanji, Jurassic Park, Terminator 2, Top Cat Most Wanted, Gremlins, or Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, go to the globally renowned casinos.com iGaming review site.

All of their featured sites have the largest selection of online slots available on the net from numerous multi-award-winning game development studios and software providers.

Other hit titles to check out if you want more great suggestions are Beetlejuice Megaways, Peaky Blinders (1 and 2), The Naked Gun, Joe Exotic, Rick and Morty Wubba Lubba Dub Dub, Mars Attacks, The Wizard of Oz, Rainbow Riches, and Ghostbusters: Triple Slime.

That’s not forgetting Narcos Mexico, Stargate Megaways, The Invisible Man, Lara Croft: Temples and Tombs, Beavis and Butt-Head, Bruce Lee, Gladiator Jackpot, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Rocky, King Kong, The Mummy, and Ace Ventura, to name just a few retro/nostalgia-inspired online slots.

What other games are also included in my Steam membership?

There are a couple of different EA Play plans you can go for on Steam, including one that costs £19.99 per year and one that costs £3.99 per month. If you pay for a year upfront, you can get up to 58% off your subscription. If you pay monthly, you can cancel at any time.

With both plans, some of the most popular EA games you can play are Madden NFL 24, Dead Space, STAR WARS Jedi: Fallen Order, GRID Legends, Need for Speed (NFS) Unbound, and Need for Speed Heat.

Others include Command & Conquer – The Remastered Collection, STAR WARS: Squadron, Titanfall 2, The Sims 4, STAR WARS Battlefront II, DIRT 5, Battlefield 1: Revolution, and Dragon Age: Inquisition (Game of the Year Edition).

Final thoughts

Whether you are looking for something new to discover that you never knew existed or fancy a truly nostalgic gaming experience to remember your childhood, the Steam website is the place to go, especially if you’re a fan of EA games.

There’s something from EA to suit all types of gamers, including story-rich games, simulators, RPGs, immersive open-world games, fantasy adventures, single and multiplayer games, action games, first-person shooters, WWI games, driving/racing/offroad games, character customization games, romance games, flight and space games, and even a couple of epic VR games.
